My Review

The storyline in this book is one of forgiveness, complicated relationships, and courage to trust in God when everything seems to be coming apart.

The characters were well-developed and I found myself feeling like being on a runaway roller coaster, not knowing which way the characters would react next. Their flaws were so real and before long I felt as though I really knew them.

There were lots of tense suspenseful moments and some tender ones that made me smile to myself. The ending wrapped everything up nicely and was happy and uplifting. The references to God and the characters' struggles with their faith seemed very real.

A very enjoyable read and highly recommended.
